A lexical analyzer uses the following patterns to recognize three tokens $${T_1},{T_2},$$ and $${T_3}$$ over the alphabet $$\left\{ {a,b,c} \right\}.$$

$$\eqalign{ & {T_1}:\,\,\,a?{\left( {b|c} \right)^ * }a \cr & {T_2}:\,\,\,b?{\left( {a|c} \right)^ * }b \cr & {T_3}:\,\,\,c?{\left( {b|a} \right)^ * }c \cr} $$

Note that $$'x?'$$ means $$0$$ or $$1$$ occurrence of the symbol $$x.$$ Note also that the analyzer outputs the token that matches the longest possible prefix.

If the string $$bbaacabc$$ is processed by the analyzer, which one of the following is the sequence of tokens it outputs?

A
$${T_1}{T_2}{T_3}$$
B
$${T_1}{T_1}{T_3}$$
C
$${T_2}{T_1}{T_3}$$
D
$${T_3}{T_3}$$

Which of the following are true?

I. A programming language which does not permit global variables of any kind and has no nesting of procedures/functions, but permits recursion can be implemented with static storage allocation

II. Multi-level access link (or display) arrangement is needed to arrange activation records only if the programming language being implemented has nesting of procedures/functions

III. Recursion in programming languages cannot be implemented with dynamic storage allocation

IV. Nesting procedures/functions and recursion require a dynamic heap allocation scheme and cannot be implemented with a stack-based allocation scheme for activation records

V. Programming languages which permit a function to return a function as its result cannot be implemented with a stack-based storage allocation scheme for activation records
